UV/EB Curable Monomer: BDDA is a low-viscosity, difunctional acrylate monomer widely used in UV and electron beam (EB) curable systems.
High Flexibility and Low Shrinkage: Provides higher flexibility and lower shrinkage compared to HDDA and DPGDA. Ideal for applications requiring flexibility.
Balanced Properties: Offers a good balance between hardness, flexibility, and chemical resistance.
Low Viscosity: Low viscosity (10–20 cP) facilitates its use as a reactive diluent in formulations.
Polymerization Risk: Readily polymerizes; always contains inhibitor (MEHQ). Keep away from heat and light.
Skin Sensitizer: BDDA may cause allergic skin reactions (H317). Appropriate PPE required.
Low Volatility: Low vapor pressure and high boiling point (>150°C) provide low volatility.
Storage: Store in cool, dark, well-ventilated areas. Shelf life is 12 months.
Alternatives: HDDA provides higher hardness, TPGDA provides higher flexibility. Selection depends on application.
Regulatory Status: Not classified as dangerous goods for transport. Avoid release to the environment.
